Meta-Word Link I

[Crank811]

yup, No "key words"

in this one... as you have surmised. Just those preset entry points.

This puzzle revolves around the meta clues-- by the time you get them all you'll have revealed a more than respectable portion of the board!

If you like the "key word" style games don't fret though...I am working on a monster 5x5 ('in the pipe 5x5' --any Aliens fans?) category puzzle that also has meta clues. Each block has one topic...like the original Funny Farm puzzle.

Who knows what else I can come up with in the meantime

Pretty sure I have not explained my inquiry very well, sorry.

If you recall the color puzzle, for expmple, each of the four squares had, what I am calling, Key Words. The Key Words were White, Green, Red and Black, and they were the center of each square.

In THIS puzzle, there are 18 "clue words" (yellow) spread out randomly throughout the puzzle (look at their placement on mini-map) which, as I understand it, give you clues to the theme of the puzzle as a whole (once you have all 18, you can guess the theme).

I really was just wondering if there were "Key Words" (9) in this puzzle

Sorry for the rant and confusion.


EDIT: Thanks Crank, question answered.

sections 1 and 7 are annoying. Section 1 still closed as mentioned earlier.
Only one known word in section 7 (linked from section 8)

@Crank
any chance of a clue for s****?

[RBS]

Oh I see what you meant now donaud. Like a hub in the middle to work toward. None of those this time. Made some progress in 4 but nothing headed up towards 1 yet.

Edit: I would love to get 7 started off of s**** as well.

Ha ha ha !!

6 letter word opened up when I put in 'hood'. It's not gamers .

[fischie]

What does 'hood' connect to? It must be something I haven't gotten yet...

[billesan]

h*** is on topmost left section of the minimap - will take a while before you open that one up

[fischie]

OK here's what I've got:

1: still not open!
2: 2
3: 1
4: 10
5: 30
6: 6
7: 2
8: 13
9: 6

I seem to have hit a wall...any hints? Especially with 2, 3 and 7.
